From the meeting of solidarity and craftsmanship comes Etika Beer, a gluten-free beer that toasts to teamwork and the fight against stereotypes, prejudice and barriers.
As of today, solidarity can literally be tasted: Etika Beer is the fruit of the collaboration between La Mongolfiera Social Cooperative and Otus Brewery, which together have brought experience and expertise to bear on a project of inestimable value.
Etika is not just a beer, but a message of altruism and generosity: it is produced, in fact, by people who are “different” who, thanks to La Mongolfiera, have been given the chance to redeem themselves and assert themselves. Within the Cooperative, in fact, diversity is understood as wealth, and this thought is concentrated to the fullest within the solidarity drink.
Etika beer, a gluten free against food waste
The appellation of “etika” is also due to the method of beer production, which starts from the collection of unsold bread to which, in full La Mongolfiera style, is given another chance; it is, in fact, processed to obtain a really tasty beer and, at the same time, avoid waste and fully respect the environment.
In essence, Etika Beer belongs to the (still not fully understood and widespread) concept of sustainable economy, according to which nothing is wasted. In this case, the protagonist is bread left unsold in bakeries and supermarkets, which, after being collected, instead of ending up in the trash is processed again to start a new life in the form of beer.
Etika Beer is Gluten free; in fact, it is derived from wheat, rye and barley, the main ingredients for bread making and simply perfect for brewing a beer with a unique and special flavor.
Buying Etika Beer has a double value: on the one hand, choosing a craft and environmentally friendly beer and, on the other, supporting the message of altruism and solidarity conveyed by La Mongolfiera Social Cooperative.
Etika beer: enjoy conviviality, choose awareness
Etika Beer is the gluten-free craft beer designed for every convivial moment, to be enjoyed and shared all year round. Perfect for your summer terrace dinners, gatherings with friends or lunches during the holidays.
Every sip of this ethical and sustainable beer tells an important story: that of social inclusion and support for La Mongolfiera Cooperative. Choose Etika for a taste experience that combines flavor, responsibility and value.
A sip of solidarity and inclusion
Etika Beer is not just taste, but a true “educational” project that teaches the value of saving, recovery and social responsibility. Born from the valuable collaboration with OTUS Brewery, this gluten-free beer gives new life to unsold bread recovered from local bakeries and restaurants.
Each stage actively involves La Mongolfiera Cooperative and the community: from harvesting and drying the bread (taken care of by people from the CSE service) to processing it into beer. Packaging and labeling are the result of the Cooperative’s Art Atelier, while order and shipment management is handled by a team from SFA services, promoting concrete job skills for people with disabilities. Special editions celebrate our gluten-free beer with the creativity of workshops.

Ho scoperto questo sito per puro caso, ma è stata una fortuna incredibile! La consegna è arrivata puntualissima e ogni prodotto era impacchettato e conservato alla perfezione, con una cura che raramente si vede negli acquisti online. I prodotti sono davvero deliziosi: inizialmente volevo acquistare solo qualcosa da regalare, ma sfogliando il catalogo mi ispirava tutto così tanto che alla fine ho ordinato anche un sacco di cose per me… e ne è valsa assolutamente la pena! Un ringraziamento speciale va al servizio clienti, in particolare a Mattia, che è stato gentilissimo e disponibilissimo e ha gestito il mio ordine con grande professionalità. Esperienza super positiva sotto ogni aspetto. Riacquisterò sicuramente da Bbuono. Consigliatissimo!
